I'm not really complaining about it because this place does listen to me and treats me pretty fairly but man... it's amazing how many times at this point in my career I've had to have the "You can TECHNICALLY add any fruit you want to a beer, but the finished product is not going to taste like the juice of that fruit only boozy. Also it cannot contain processed sugar." talk. |

Yes, I sm going to work for a few hours. Time sensitive material has to be delivered (physical copies ffs) before tomorrow afternoon and I won't be much better by then. Best to get it over with. My boss is out sick or she'd do it herself. |

I would rather go to work than deal with antibiotic side effects. That's how awful they are.

It's sort of amazing how Japanese people will use being fat as an explanation for any issue you may have. My body's sore from the brew day. Could it be because I was on my feet in rubber boots standing on concrete and steel for the better part of ten hours running around, climbing up and down, carrying heavy loads, graining out by hand, etc ? Nah. Must be because I'm fat. It's sorta whatever but it gets sort of old sometimes. Like why don't you get in there and do what I do in a similar time frame?

i would dearly love to be able to communicate to people that they really really really do not need to wear makeup on video calls, especially on internal, informal meetings. as a middle aged dude, i don't feel that i can bring the subject up without sounding like a creepy weirdo boomer. the pressure on female identifying software developers is already ridiculously high. i would love to be able to reduce that pressure. nyeh

I haven't worn any in over a decade but did enjoy playing with colours and styles. |

xcheopis posted:It is entirely possible that they like wearing makeup. I haven't worn any in over a decade but did enjoy playing with colours and styles. Yeah, it's a hard thing to comment on because if you assume they're just wearing it out of obligation and they're actually just into looking fabulous the comment can come off as insulting. But if you complement someone's makeup and they're really just wearing it because they think they have to then that reinforces the idea that it's expected for them to wear makeup. I have no actual answers, just commiseration. As a lady-type-person who never got into makeup with lady-type-friends who genuinely enjoy makeup I just appreciate anyone going through the effort no matter the motivation. poo poo takes time and practice and skill and just the innate confidence to pull off a cat eyeliner without feeling performative/self conscious and just color me impressed, dang. |

yeah tbh i wouldn't say anything. in a work setting i'm basically never going to comment on someone's appearance except for things that are clearly a deliberate choice ("new haircut, looks great!" or "oh those are cool boots!")

yeah exactly. there's no way on this gay earth that i'm going to say anything. there's one person in particular who is bearing a very heavy load right now and i'm doing my best to make life easier for them. it's quite possible that wearing makeup makes them feel better about themselves and helps them cope better.

I only wear makeup when I want to because sometimes I like to feel pretty and if someone comments on it I feel really self conscious. |

Oh god, I am extra grumpy this morning. It's my second required day in the office, and 20 minutes in this lady across the hall still hasn't stopped complaining to her manager about how she feels she's being treated by this other employee. Like, I'm almost 100% convinced that these required in-office days are a reflection that management wants to pay us to socialize, and they're fully aware that it comes at a 20% loss of productivity. I'm just still upset that everybody lied to me about this for the last 20+ years of my career. I guess that one place in Austin was explicit about the mandatory weekend team-building exercises. Maybe I shouldn't have turned down the offer. At least they were being honest about it. |

Oh, and another thing, they publish this internal magazine every month whether you want a copy or not. I've tried over the years to stop getting a copy, because it goes directly in the trash, and every time I ask they're like "sorry we can't stop sending it to you." The cover this morning said "THE CLIMATE CRISIS: Earth's Climate Is Changing. Can we?" I mean, clearly the answer is no, you fuckers are just going to keep pushing crap nobody wants as the planet burns. |

Spoilered for angry: I work in the same space as another department. They were having their morning meeting and they were talking about how management was becoming much more strict on timekeeping. The supervisor said that "[Workplace] won't be held hostage by its employees anymore" and that they would fire people and be short-staffed if need be. Anyway hearing that made my $14-per-hour rear end want to punch my computer screen. What a loving joke |
